About market, TAPE is in a holding pattern until it breaks one way or other. Internals have deteriorated today and needs watching going forward. Sector preference is changing and is worth taking notes. Solar is not acting well. Gold stocks are behaving much better and needs some exposure. Option expiry is taking a hold this week, action in some stocks may be manipulated. Keep an eye in your own portfolio as we have less than six weeks left in this year trading, do some tax planning @ this stage.

BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hey Saleem,

I am very tempted by WLH given the large drop based on the equity raise they did. With that out of the way, and an analyst upgrade today, and housing stocks doing well, what are your thoughts on a bargain hunt here?
